널이 무엇을 뜻하는지 불명확

해결 1: 널 필터링

original_table
+--------+-----------------+
| order  | price_per_unit  |
|--------|-----------------|
| 1      | 4.50            |
| 2      | 2.25            |
| 3      | null            |
+--------+-----------------+

SELECT *
FROM original_table
WHERE price_per_unit IS NOT NULL;

해결 2: COALESCE()

구문: COALESCE(field, null_replacement)

SELECT 
    COALESCE(region,'Independent Athletes') AS region,
    COUNT(DISTINCT athlete_id) AS athletes
FROM summer_games AS s
JOIN countries AS c
ON s.country_id = c.id;

+-----------------------+-----------+
| region                | athletes  |
|-----------------------|-----------|
| BALTICS               | 42        |
| OCEANIA               | 62        |
| Independent Athletes  | 10        |

쿼리로 인한 널

원인:

LEFT JOIN이 모든 행과 매칭되지 않음
어떤 CASE 조건도 충족되지 않음
그 외 여러 가지

널의 영향 측정

널 행 비율

SELECT SUM(CASE when country IS NULL then 1 else 0 end) / SUM(1.00)
FROM orders;

+-------+
| .12   |
+-------+

널인 매출 비율

SELECT SUM(CASE when country IS NULL then revenue else 0 end) / SUM(revenue)
FROM orders;

+-------+
| .25   |
+-------+
